    Use a disposable camera if you can - Digital images don't hold up in court IIRC?

    ouch man... Surely clamn it. From what I have heard try not to use digital camera, also take more of the surroundings, as in reference point just to be save. Those shiftty bugger may fill in the hole before you get a chance to get your claim finialised.
    good luck

    I tried about 2 yrs ago when I lived in brisbane. Was pulling up outside my office and cliped the kerb and there was a massive sharp bit of metal sticking out of the storm drain. Ripped my tyre wall. Brisbane city council would take no responsibility at all. 8@$t@rds

    I had the same thing in Townsville at the start of 2009. Took plenty of photos, but Townsville City Council took no responsibility, and didn't pay up.
